Scrambled Eve is a 3-star event card that shuffles all cards among the players' hands into the deck. Each card shuffled into the deck gives its owner 5 stars. If a hyper card is returned to the deck, it will be drawn as the card that was shuffled, not as the player's hyper.

Strategy

Scrambled Eve is the most reliable way to empty one or more players' hands. It can be used to get rid of troublesome gift cards and prevent opponents from playing event, battle, or boost cards against the player until they can draw more. In a pinch, it can even be used to stop an opponent like Saki or Chicken from laying their traps on the player's home base. Aru can use Scrambled Eve to empty her opponents' hands in order to get more value out of  Present for You, although she will have to draw it after Scrambled Eve is played. Scrambled Eve also gives Mei an easy way to get  Red & Blue back regardless of the other cards in her hand. For everyone else, it is important consider that Scrambled Eve can cause the player's hyper card to be shuffled into the deck where any player can draw it. Offensive characters with poor hypers like Yuki or Tomomo are not particularly bothered by other characters having their hypers and can take advantage of the lack of cards to attack their opponents. Although he cannot play it himself, Store Manager loves having his cards taken away and benefits from his opponents being unable to play battle cards against him. He doesn't even mind having  Banned for Life shuffled into the deck, as he was going to give it to someone else anyways.

The most obvious drawback to Scrambled Eve is that it causes the player to lose any cards that they were holding. Any character that relies on having a full hand will be heavily set back by a Scrambled Eve. This includes characters like Peat and Nico who like to hoard hyper cards, characters like Tsih or QP (Dangerous) that hold cards for passive boosts, and characters like QP who want cards in general to keep their options open. Even characters that benefit from this card can be harmed if it is played at a bad time, causing them to shuffle powerful cards like  Present for You and  Red & Blue into the deck for anyone to draw. Lastly, it is important for the player to keep track of their opponent's stars so they do not accidentally give an opponent enough stars to norma or even win the game.
